There is an increasing need to integrate spatial index structures into commercial database management systems. In geographic information systems (GIS), huge amounts of information ...
There are various techniques for simulating crowds, however, in most cases the quality of the simulation is measured by examining its “look-and-feel”. Even if the aggregate mov...
Many Geographic Information System (GIS) applications must handle large geospatial datasets stored in raster representation. Spatial joins over raster data are important queries i...
